A further prayer has also been made to take appropriate action against the officials respondents No. 3 to 5, as they are harrasing the petitioners.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are being harrassed on the ground that their son is being involved in some criminal activities. It is further submitted that the respondents No. 3 to 5/police officials are repeatedly summoning the petitioners to the police station on the pretext of conducting an enquiry and are threatening to falsely implicate them in criminal cases with a view to coercing them into withdrawing the legal proceedings initiated by them. He further submits that the petitioners have already ANJAL GUPTA 2026.07.22 09:50 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document submitted a representation dated 15.07.2026 (Annexure P-3) to the concerned police authorities in this regard; however, no action has been taken thereon.
